When we talk about a possible return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, two names automatically come to mind: Robert Downey Jr. and Robert Downey Jr. Chris Evans. In the case of the second actor, there have been many speculations about the return of Captain America after his emotional goodbye in Avengers: Endgame. Curious, the actor has expressed interest in resuming his adventure as a superhero, but not at the feet of Steve Rogers..
If not like Captain America, then how? You may remember that Chris Evans back in 2005 played the Human Torch in fantastic Four; It was the first time a superhero group led by Reed Richards made the leap to the big screen. His reception, yes, was not entirely positive. It received negative reviews from critics and grossed only $330 million at the box office.
Believe it or not Chris Evans doesn’t see bad eyes playing Human Torch again. “God, wouldn’t that be great? Wouldn’t that be great?” he said with feeling in an interview with MTVNews. However, Evans also noted that so far no one at Marvel has approached him about this.
“No, no one has come to me for this yet. [volver a interpretar a la Antorcha Humana]. I mean, I don’t look exactly the same anymore. That was 15 or 20 years ago, I’m already old. I really love this character, but… aren’t they doing something with Fantastic Four?”
As Chris Evans well remembers, it is well known that Marvel Studios is already working on a new movie fantastic Four. It didn’t start on the right foot, of course, as it recently lost its director, Jon Watts. Right now, Kevin Feige and his team are looking for a new director.
Why is there talk of Chris Evans returning as the Human Torch if his role in the MCU was that of Captain America? The answer is conditional multiverse. This is a phenomenon that has already been investigated. Loki, Spiderman: No Way Home D Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, allows you to enter characters from other universes. The actor, of course, knows this.
“I would love to. In fact, it would be easier for me to sell it [a Antorcha Humana] come back as a cap. If you know what I mean? Cap is very dear to me. And I don’t want to spoil the wonderful experience that was. But Johnny Storm, I feel like he didn’t have his moment. This was before Marvel really got on its feet. So I liked this role, and, you know, who knows … “- said Chris Evans.
As for being able to stand on Captain America’s feet, the least not clear at the moment:
“It seems to be what people would like to see. I don’t want to disappoint anyone, but it’s difficult…it was a good race and I’m very happy with it. must be perfect. It would be scary to hit someone, which, again, is so dear to me. This role means a lot. So getting back to him would be a challenge.”
